    Trip to NZ

    The weather's crap in the North Island right now, so you made the right choice in going to the South. There's plenty of touristy things to do in Queenstown and Milford if that's your thing, but do keep in mind that New Zealand is hardly the world's most exciting country. For restuarants...

    Nothing wrong with getting tested, but you sure made it sound like one of you was up to no good. Women freak out over stuff like that.

    Most consistent Headphone brand?
